Business Profile: Peace Hair & Beauty

Peace Hair and Beauty has sat in the heart of Oreston Village for over 10 years, providing hair and beauty services for the local village and the general public across Plymouth. We caught up with owner Julia Calvert and senior stylist Annette Doyle to find out what the salon has to offer and how it has changed over since Julia has taken over.

Julia took over ownership of Peace Hair and Beauty in June 2014 and since then the salon has grown rapidly. Previous owner and now senior stylist at the salon, Annette, owned the salon for 2 years before deciding that she wanted to take a step back from the business side and focus on hair styling.

A fresh set of business eyes from Julia proved to benefit the salon greatly.

She transformed the look of the salon into the stylish and modern layout it now has, as well as increasing the team members to have a now fully-fledged team of hairstylists and a beautician.

Taking on more staff was a priority for Julia to allow the salon to expand and provide the best and widest range of services possible.

Before taking over, Peace Hair and Beauty had two stylists and an apprentice. They have expanded swiftly to 9 members of staff, with 7 stylists, 1 apprentice and 1 beautician.

The list of hair and beauty services offered by the salon is endless. Women, men and children are all welcome with hair services available to all.

An in house beautician allows the salon to provide a large array of beauty treatments from nail services, waxing, makeup, skin treatments, tanning and so much more.

“Julia has more passion for the business side”

Since taking over the salon, Julia has pushed the online presence of the salon via their website and social media channels such as Facebook which has allowed business to increase considerably.

The success of the salon was put to the test in 2018 at the Best Salon in Plymouth Awards where they achieved an amazing second place against all other salons in Plymouth.

With three other businesses surrounding the salon, Julia tells us “We are happy in Oreston, it’s like a little family and we all support one another”

It is clear to see that Julia has a true passion for business and developing the salon into the best it can be.
